What can I say, this was one of greatest fantasy movie series ever created for the silver screen, and a faithful interpretation from the novels. I feel the movie graphics and soundtrack was far ahead of its time and it will continue to entertain movie fans for generations to come.

I grew up with the original movie series that came out during the 1070's, and thought it was the best sci-fi movie of that period. This modern trilogy was a great remake, fitting for this generation, with computer graphics & imagery being what it is today. This made for an entertaining trilogy.

A somber movie, and excellent drama piece. Some of the finest actors gives breath to this terrific and gripping movie. It is no surprise that it did well at the academy awards.
